Ketones

[goldylocks]

Hi Guys, hope you are all doing fab!
Just a quick question about ketones...

Should my pharmacy be checking my ketone levels regularly whilst i'm on TFR?

I'm going for my 4th weigh in tomorrow and they have never been checked!

Well mine don't check, apparently when they had the induction with Lipotrim and they said it wasn't required. However I've bought my own ketostix, which is a good way to check your getting enough water.

They don't usually check but they probably would if you requested it. The problem would be you would need to take a urine sample with you and it's just much easier to do yourself at home first thing in the morning if you need the reassurance. Basically, if you've been 100% for more than 5 days you will definitely be in ketosis.
